Nobilis of War novel Chapter 1277

There was no concept of time in the cave. Regardless of how long Darren stayed inside, the time outside would not change.

He continued with his cultivation. Because his soul and talent were very powerful, his physical strength soon reached the level of the Primary God Realm.

'Good. This body is not as weak as it used to be, ' he thought.

Darren released his soul completely. His body could carry it now.

'My new body has reached its limit, ' he mused. 'After all, I have only relied on the god's power to improve my physical strength. It still needs to be honed through fights in order to get stronger.'

Even if Darren continued to nourish his body with the god's power, his physical strength would remain at the same level. It could not increase any further.

Moreover, within his new body, there was no Sword God Character or Blade God Character or other things in his elixir field, which he could use to develop powerful skills.

He knew that if he wanted to break through the stone walls of the cave, his physical strength needed to surpass the Celestial God Realm. Darren frowned, deep in thought. It would be very difficult to achieve that.

'I have no choice, ' he thought. 'I must go to Supreme God Sheffield's tomb.'

He decided that his best course of action was to go to the tomb and look around. With luck, he would be able to find and kill some ferocious creatures. With his Evolution Force, he would then be able to greatly increase his physical strength over a short period of time.

Darren began walking along the path towards the entrance of the cave.

It took a while to reach the entrance.

He concealed all his auras and paused at the mouth of the cave. Cautiously, he stepped out, gazing around for his target.

Although he possessed a body now, his physical strength was only equivalent to the Primary God Realm. He was still far too weak. At this level, it felt like even a strong wind would tear him apart.

'This might be too difficult after all, ' he thought, shaking his head.

Now that he was outside the cave, he couldn't help realizing how hard it would be to catch other creatures. The odds were definitely against him.

He stopped only a short distance from the cave entrance. He didn't dare to venture too far. He reasoned that the best course of action would be to wait here.

After some time, his patience was rewarded. A fiend approached the area where Darren stood waiting. Its body was entirely covered with scales.

'This creature must be above the Celestial God Realm!' he thought. He was silent and unmoving, worried that any motion would alert the fiend to his hiding place. He did not want to risk provoking it.

His uneasiness grew as another creature drew nearer. This one looked like a fierce dog with three heads. It released an astonishingly powerful aura.

'This creature is even more powerful than the other one. It must be at the top level of the Celestial God Realm, ' he thought.

Darren was so still that he could feel dust settling over his motionless body, as though he were a stone.

Something howled in the distance.

There was an answering howl.

These two new voices immediately attracted Darren's attention.

He squinted, looking into the distance, and saw two enormous creatures colliding with each other. They were gigantic, almost as large as mountains. Their bodies were covered with horrible wounds.

Darren saw his opportunity. He held his breath, watching the battle intently.

He had been hoping that powerful creatures would fight with each other in his proximity.

The two enormous creatures fought with increasing ferocity, causing severe injuries to each other. Finally, one of them collapsed and stopped moving. The other teetered, then fell over as well. They were dead.

Darren was exhilarated.

He felt as though he had been waiting for this moment for a very long time.

Instantly, he flew away from his hiding place, activating his God Character.

He simultaneously released the power of the Assimilating Force and the Evolution Force, shooting them into the two huge corpses that lay motionless on the ground.

With a boom, the energy entered the corpses.

Two rays of light surged in his mind like a river. One of them turned into a talent, while the other flowed through his meridians.
